This is the first posting from Debbie and John Brett's Seriously Cooking blog and we're very glad that you could all make it. We're really excited to finally be able to reach out to everyone from all the years and get in touch with any fans of Debbie's cooking that are out there. And I know there's a lot of you, although you're not all from the same camp. Some of you might have gotten hooked in the land of the living skies (the Prairies) where you probably developed a taste for some of the very best organic, stone milled breads in the area. And let's not even get started on those butter glazed whole wheat buns. Or maybe you're a long lost relative that dropped in at a Christmas party and happened upon one of Debbie's dairy and wheat free pumpkin pies (though you'd never guess, swearing it was some of the best you've ever had). Some of you got connected in the beautiful West Coast, lining up at the Circle Cafe just to get a bowl of hearty, healthy and super tasty soup that would disappear faster than a daily special at the 'Soup Nazi's' restaurant! Then you'd be back an hour later to wait in line again for one of Debbie's fresh baked, still warm from the oven chocolate chip cookies (which incidentally were voted 'Best of the Island' by the Times Colonist newspaper). And while you were there, you probably bought an Americano or a Latte from the Barista, and that was probably me.
This is just a start; you could have gotten hooked on any number of Debbie's tasty items almost anywhere else in the country.
So it may have been just a few weeks since we were connected with you or it may have been a decade but that tasty item is still lingering in your mind! Well, I have some great news! Debbie has finally taken that store of knowledge from over the years and started to put it in one place.
Look for the first book in the series: SERIOUSLY COOKING - SOUPS! By: Debbie Donnelly
Can't wait to see you next time!
